Hoover Disaster Drill

Joint Training Exercise

Emergency responders from Hoover and the surrounding areas took to the streets near the Riverchase Galleria to make sure the area was prepared should a tornado strike.

"In reality, if this area was hit by a tornado, we've seen nationwide it could be a couple of hours before you could actually get vehicles in here because you've got to clean debris out of the way," Hoover Police Captain Jim Coker said.
